View Full Version : Anyone want to form a serious topical/writing crew?
Objective
10-12-2013, 10:35 PM
I'm drunk and high as fuck which should really qualify for Hemmingways quote: Write fucked up/drunk -> Edit Sober. And I seriously believe that shit. Most of the best shit I've written is drunk/high. Either way, even when completely sober a lot of great ideas come through and the plots starts to thicken. If anyone want to actively go through eachothers written work (doesn't matter what condition it was written in) or want to collaborate on getting a book together seriously I'm down for it.
But I want it to be with a group of people that want to get better in their genre and want to get somewhere with writing outside of what the internet has to offer. I'm talking about pushing eachother to get in touch with local contacts, libraries/old school teachers (you'd be amazed at how many started out there) and other places. Let's positively push eachother to positive goals beside of HoF Noms and other trophies of the like allthough we should also push to win those goals here as a statement to improvement etc.
If I'm the only one that is actually looking upon writing as something serious I want for my life and publishing solo works in the future I guess this MAY not be the place for me to grow. I don't know. But the offer stands.
The crew will be named: THC - Topical Heads Collective.

That's up to them, nothing is wrong with being content with where you/they are. Writing and where people want it to get them is completely individual and that's something to respect. However, I and hopefully you among with others shall push eachothers to see where it can get us while still being fun and experimental.
I believe that can be something we shall accomplish through a common goal; Educate ourselves and never let challenges stop us no matter how ''stupid'' they may sound, cuz it may become reality when we finally take the leap of faith to get there.
I can swear on this tomorrow as well.
I'm down except for the crew name.

The crew name should be...
'Yeah.'

Or "Writers."
I'm in so far as I like it when people send me verses and I can write off them. But I'm definitely in for any collaborative efforts limited to the sphere of this small Internet circle. I'm not trying to get a book published with my raps or anything like that.

Storyteller: The crew is more about taking the next step outside of just improving yourself. Simply only wanting to improve isn't enough, maybe at a later notice.
So, we got Zenland and NYCSPITZ. We got room for 1 more that's dedicated, talented and willing to do what needs to be done to get somewhere with our writing. If this sounds interesting, don't hesitate to post in this thread for a review. It's also extremely important that the three of us is willing to let you into the circle, so simply being really great at what you do may not be enough as we'll have to work together on a bunch of other things as well in the future.
It can work with just the three of us as well, but we wouldn't mind one more if he got what we're after.

I feel intimidated by the term "serious"... how serious are we talking here?
I mean, I love writing and consider it a dear past time, but do we have to wear any special clothing (i.e. suit and tie) or is this more of a business casual venture? Also, I'm trying to quit smoking and if we are taking things as seriously as I suppose you are, I would imagine there will be cigars and glasses of Woodford Reserve that we will be required to consume on a regular basis. This may present a problem for me as I'm recovering from numerous substance addictions.
As an aside, I am also not privy to ritualistic sex or the bizarre gay mating practices these writing cults often embrace. I hope that we can create beautiful poems together, however, I cannot and will not condone this homoerotic behavior in conjunction with your drug-induced, dick-tugging recruitment methods.
Please review my application for enrollment and I pray that our talents can unite in your fudge-packing, albeit "serious", topical crew.
Cheers.

Lmfao @ Outlaw. Serious as in; trying to get a collection of some sort published and create a plan we're going to follow to make that happen. I got some things in mind on how to approach it and reach our goals once we get it going. I've been reading quite abit around etc. on how to get there and what we got is dope stuff, I think it's far from unrealistic to think that 3-4 people can get together something the public is willing to take part in.

Don't know if Guerilla Topical is it, lol, but I definitely like the idea that the name can be modified in different ways.
Also, what do the rest think about letting King Ra. in? ( Storyteller NYCSPITZ & Zenland) If yes; 5 is the absolute maximum for the crew imho. It's starting to get crowded already now. The spots will only MAYBE open up if someone isn't active anymore or isn't willing to do what it takes. Keep in mind that we're aiming for a long lasting crew that'll constantly push and motivate/inspire eachother to do better, even outside of textceeing.

If you're not even willing to read through the thread I don't think you're the guy we need. Not to mention the fact that I think you'd be interested in this for about a couple weeks, a month max maybe and then continued doing whatever you're doing now. I think you're cool as a boarder, but I don't think you're the right guy for us.
Just read what Zen got to say and I might be wrong. NYCSPITZ & Storyteller what's your thoughts?
Death: A.T.R. is doing their thing with talented writers. No beef with them as far as I'm concerned.

Do what you want @Pancake Brah but I'm fine with you joining if you're in it for the cause.
For real tho Mike Wrecka; I expected Genocide to come in here to flex. I mean, he did kick me out without notice so why shouldn't he show his presence here as well? I didn't expect you to do the same tho'. If you want to start beef I'm not going to stop you, I'll just stop to respond. I don't care about Genocides mission to be the Messiah of text and raise it from its imaginary ashes, but don't sink to the same level and clutter this thread with shit.
Edit: Also NYCSPITZ: There wont be no core beside of you, me and Zenland. You guys were the ones I first talked to and that's how it's going to be. We will however work together for a common goal and make sure that there wont be no core in the end. It's just us, a collective of writers trying to get somewhere and we'll discuss how to make sure it's satisfying for everyone involved.
I voted yes and I think NYC did as well. But on the real ill fist fight both geno and mike but I'm not driving or flying anywhere even if you pay for the gas/ticket. Since I said that you can't call me a pussy. In fact you're the pussy if you don't come fight me but I ain't paying you to come down either. Pussies.
Yourf out of bounds guy

Not you or anything else pertaining to this thread. Calm your young bones
And zen
Why would you even consider the thought of writing a check so boldly voided in the same sentence? Outlandish, and you might fist fight me.. but you'll lose. Keep your money
Geno I will keep my check because as I just said I will pay for nothing and you would lose. You were wrong twice in one post.

But do as you wish. Cuz anyone willing to join you guys is in it for a completely different reason than we are. Keep doing you...
This guy
Hey mike, what is with internet personalities brandishing a tough guy routine that they know will never be seen irl, or relevant anywhere?
Its like the guy who gets picked on, looks around and sees cops, then rebuttles back as loud and ignorant as possible in hopes of receiving the police attention so the fight gets broken up before it starts.
I've always been a no rap kind of guy myself. I would whoop your fucking ass before you ever heard my voice in these streets. Real nigga shit

What happened with the ''I apologize Objective, I didn't know he was thinking about cutting you out. You're active and dope, please join us again!'' And I said ''No''? Did you decide that you wanted to trash talk the crew I was making before or after I said ''no'' to re-joining you? Be honest. Either way it's not a good look. Please re-consider not being a douchebag. That is not a threat, just a reminder that I'm willing to be cool with you if you're cool with me. But I guess a crew that stabs people in the back require a certain personality? Prove me wrong.
Dude it would be fun no lie we could get drunk and fight over something small and not talk to each other for like ten years and then one day we'll be on netcees 7 and talk about it.

Lmfao. I know, and I know. I take the full blame for that shit and I deserve nothing less, but you could be the bigger man. I read it again now and shake my head at whatever the fuck I managed to write.
What surprised me the most is how well I wrote that shit. You probably wont believe me along with others if you've print screened it, but I was high af and drunk out of my mind so that's a small kicker. I don't know why I acted out like that, usually I would just think it was a dick move by you and then create this thread to get together with other peeps instead. But it had been a rather rough night when I got home from town and I saw that stuff from you I got angry af.
But ye, that's me on booze. Either happy as hell or angry as fuck. I wish you the best with A.T.R. Just don't treat them like nothing if they're suddenly not answering to your ''standards'' anymore or whatever.
